Zoo Day!

Q: What does it take to spend a day at the zoo with 5 toddlers?

A: 3 moms, 1 aunt, 2 grandmas, 2 wagons, a double stroller, backpacks, diaper bags, 5 cameras and enough food and juice boxes for a small country!!

Here we go!

Blythe, Trinity and Matthew

Matthew loves to have his grandparents come to visit! Dad and Rita came up one weekend, Mom and Billy the next. Aunt Addie and GREAT-Aunt Kaye also came, but I didn't get pictures. We had so much fun!

How do you turn this thing on?

Me and PapaBear

We had "the big cousins" up for a few days and had a blast! All three are so sweet and helpful and very tolerant of their little cousin. We look forward to the next visit.

This weekend, we traveled to Johnathon and Laura's house for Jacob's baptism. We had a great time and loved being a part of their special day. Here are a few pictures. If you haven't yet seen Jacob, he's definately one of our babies: dark and chubby!
